Citgo - Houston Christmas party! This was such a family fun Christmas party. Fireworks, adult gourmet food, children's carnival food, hot chocolate and dessert bars, video games, jumpers, carnival games, etc. Our boys and WE had the best time. Vary rarely are we "all" in a picture together so this was a must post! We dinned and played and ate right on the field :-)
Me and my LOU!
Let the carnival begin.
How cool is it to play a video game on the same field the

Mistletoe and Moss
November 16-19, 2011 I took "The Brown Bobbin" to my first holiday market. Mistletoe and Moss is my Junior League of Lake Charles' annual holiday market. Its such a large fundraiser in our community and raises funds for many of our amazing projects. With my mother in law helping Thomas and the boys and my mother helping me with orders while I monogrammed....it was a huge success and will be doing it again! Thank you both for helping, I couldn't have done it without you ladies. Here is my mother and I at preview party!
It was so much fun seeing old friends, new friends, old teachers, former students, family and just enjoying the holiday festivities and food. The market was so much fun and I kept super busy! My mother had to remind me several times that I had so many orders to do....so stop talking so much! HAHA! But it was so much fun catching up with everyone. It was crazy busy!!! I could get use to this :-) I have officially closed my shop, The Brown Bobbin until 2012.
Here is a picture of my booth. It was hard to get it all in and the lighting was not the best. I will post more later. News to follow soon.....stay tuned!
